The Same Page is a blog; currently dedicated to reviewing Season 4 of NBC’s The Voice. Written by friends for life Giselle Carrington and Tonia Holder, this blog puts together all their thoughts while watching episodes of The Voice. This Blog is a bit different from your average review blog between friends, mainly because Giselle is in
Giz: So sorry this review is late!!! We both work and live in different countries! It's kinda hard to be on time, buuuuuuuuut, we are trying! Battle No. 2 is being reviewed by Tonz! Woohoo!
Ok so after that fantastic start to the
battle rounds I was expecting this one to just blow me away (pun intended) just
the same. But I have to say it didn’t really live up to my expectations. But they were good non -the -less.
But I have to say I have one BIG GROUSE
with NBC about this battle rounds. Why, oh why were there not one, not two, but
THREE battles that were excluded from showing? And where exactly can I see
them? Is it because this one was a one hour show instead of two?? Anyways as
Carson would say ‘ let the battle begin’…

Now I barely remember Warren’s audition but
I do know he is country and Adam wanted a country artist, Gis didn’t remember
Warren’s audition at all. Incredibly Michael is also a country artist and I do
remember his audition. Both artists are in the service with Warren being a
fireman and Michael a sheriff. I don’t really know this song but I have faith
in Adam and I know he knows what he’s doing. Warren starts off strong and he
has a sexy swag about him that I’m immediately drawn to along with his dance
moves lol. Michael has a strong voice as well and he looks like a teddy bear I
just want to hug him tight with his big belly lol. They harmonize together
really well. Gis thought Warren was
smooth and Michael was rough. Throughout the battle Warren was a bit inaudible
according to Gis and she believed Michael was the better singer. I wasn’t sure
who Adam was going to choose because in their own right they were each good, I
mean they had to be in order to get Adam to turn his chair. In the end Adam
chose sexy fireman Warren to be the winner and we really couldn’t argue with
him there. Good luck teddy bear sheriff Michael.
First thoughts – well hello Josiah! (from
both Gis and I). I don’t recall his audition but Gis does and she liked it a
lot. Jeff is ok in the looks department and well I don’t think I saw his
audition.
During the practice time Josiah and Jeff
had a little bromance going on and they both thought they sounded good and low
and behold they got Usher mad! I mean who does that?! Who makes Usher mad?! Gis
makes mention of Usher’s coaching style, he is good, same page. I believe the
producers really like Usher’s teaching technique because they showed his
practice session a bit more than the others. The battle round was kind of short
but Josiah really sang his heart out and he had a rough sexy edge to his voice.
While Jeff sounded a bit pop-ish but he still held his own. The battle was
spectacular and the other judges did agree on this much to Usher’s annoyance
lol. But ultimately it did belong to Josiah and I’m glad he won, if only so I
could see his sexy model face one more time ;). So long Jeff.
Now these two are great country/pop
singers. I turned my chair for them both and was glad when they were chosen.
BOTH their auditions were that good. I feel like I’ve heard Caroline’s voice
before though and not in a bad way because I really like it. Danielle is young
and untrained but her voice is strong and she was able to find the confidence
that was missing during the practice session. Giselle’s thought was that she is
‘real good’. She felt that Caroline’s
voice is different and a bit soft but she loves it just as me. Danielle really
belted out some notes and immediately we knew that Blake is going to choose her
and we’re hoping Adam is listening an as impressed as we are with Caroline to
steal her. It was a tough battle though because even though Danielle was strong
in her notes and very confident and consistent Caroline held her own and I am
really attracted to her voice. So in the end Blake chose Danielle as we knew he
would and we are urging Adam to push his button and he DOES! Yes! *fist pump*
but wait so does Usher *double fist pump* it’s a battle for her and I love it
(ha in your face Blake). Overall Adam wins because he did turn his chair for
her during her audition so YES! She is not out of the competition and we are
thrilled. Take that Blake.
So this was a good enough battle round
overall. I am again most peeved with NBC about the missing battles that weren’t
shown.
